In an effort to be a more informed voter, I have been reading the platforms of the four major contenders in the election (yes, I'm counting the Green Party, because even though they're doomed because of our stupid first-past-the-post electoral system, they still get a significant percentage of votes).

I thought I had properly braced myself, having consumed the better part of a disappointing Blanche de Chambly, but it turns out I need more than one beer to withstand Canadian politics.

In fact, I highly suspect there may not be enough beer in the world for this.

And I haven't even begun looking at the economic fiasco happening in the States. Egads.

Forgive me for being an ignorant foreigner, but counting the Green party wouldn't there be five major parties? The Bloc, The Liberals, The Conservatives, The NDP, and The Greens.

Ho Ho Ho, Party Platforms

What a dutiful soul you are!

Here, John McCain and the Dubya Administration are lining up for the $700 billion bailout.

The Republican party platform for 2008 specifically states that there shall be no bailouts.

La, la, la, la...
